Does y+x=1 show direct variation

1 Answer

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Equations with direct variation follow the form y= kx, where k = constant of proportionality.

To find out if y + x = 1, we need to isolate y by itself.

Step 1: Subtract x from both sides.


  • y+x-x=1-x

  • y=-x+1

As you can see, y + x = 1 does not show direct variation.
